Title: Internet advice
Post by: Ogre on August 05, 2014, 10:24:19 AM: I have DirecTV as my tv provider, but I have my internet through Wow. They just jacked up my monthly internet charge from $32.95 to $56.95. The only other internet provider in my area is Time Warner and their prices aren't any better. Am I stuck paying that much for internet, or is there a better option that you nerds know of?

We have the phone, cable and interwebz package with them and since I finally broke down and got mini a cell phone, I'm about to finally drop the land line. Plus, unless I missed it I don't think WOW has jumped on board with the SEC Network yet.

What about AT&T?
My ATT Uverse costs $51.00 and Dish 200 is 48.00. I seriously scratch and claw to keep it below $100.

But I think Comcast, is running a special for 99.99 which could very well be in that coverage area of Huntsville and vacinity.
